What it is
These are whole, raw cashews, meaning they have not been roasted or seasoned. They come in their natural state, offering a mild, creamy flavor and a satisfying crunch. Cashews are kidney-shaped nuts that grow on trees. They are a popular snack and ingredient in many cuisines around the world. This package contains a generous amount for various culinary uses.
How people cook with it
Cashews are incredibly versatile in the kitchen. They can be enjoyed as a simple snack or incorporated into both sweet and savory dishes.
- Snacking
- Stir-fries
- Sauces
- Baking
To enjoy these raw cashews, you can simply eat them as they are. For a richer flavor and crispier texture, they can be lightly toasted in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, or roasted in an oven. They are also a fantastic base for dairy-free creams and sauces when soaked and blended. Chop them finely to add texture to baked goods or sprinkle them over salads. Their mild taste makes them adaptable to many flavor profiles, from spicy to sweet.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike roasted cashews, these raw nuts have a softer texture and a more subtle, milky flavor. Roasting brings out a deeper, nuttier taste and a firmer crunch. Raw cashews are also ideal for blending into smooth, creamy textures without introducing a dominant roasted flavor.

How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any unused cashews in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. For longer storage, they can be kept in the refrigerator or even frozen to preserve their quality and prevent them from becoming rancid.
